Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
My friend had unprotected sex with his partner on the day when his partner is at a high chance to be pregnant. But he did not ejaculate inside. After that, his partner took 5 contraceptive pills to reduce the chance of having a pregnancy. Can she have a chance to become pregnant?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Though he has not ejaculated, still she has a chance to become pregnant due to pre-seminal fluid. It is a clear fluid rich in young healthy sperms that comes out before semen. Taking four tablets of contraception (combination of Ethinyl estradiol and Drospirenone) and then taking four more tablets after 12 hours produces high doses of hormones in the body. It increases the inner lining of the uterus suddenly. It makes it unfavorable for the possible embryo to settle into the uterus. This is an old method and do not delay the pills. As time passes, effectiveness gets reduced. Do not repeat this frequently. It can disturb the hormonal balance and reduces the effectiveness of the pill. Consult a specialist for further discussion.
